Lyrics






Ain't Comin' Home

Ain't turning back it's my time to fly
Too many decisions and not enough time
But I always did like the thrill of living in the unknown
So pucker up mama 'cause I

I ain't comin' home

Don't hold me back it's my time to fly and
The devil gave me nine full lives and I say this with a full grin
Because nothing is better than living in sin

'Cause I ain't turning back it's my time to fly
Too many decisions and not enough enough time
But I always did like the thrill of living in the unknown
So pucker up mama 'cause I

I ain't comin' home

Could you help me babe
I've been flying all night and you can't leave me babe
'Cause you keep it pumpin' all night

I ain't comin' home




Devil's Daughter

Hell of an angel
Skin that shines like pearl
Eyes that make your soul bleed
Innocent and sweet
Your friends surely agree
Like candy she's a real treat
But sugar's far from calm
I don't mean to alarm
By the time you blink
The shit kicks in

I'm walkin' up the stairs
My heart's beating fast
Following her legs
To her thighs
To her yeah, yeah, yeah

I went to bed with an angel
At least that's what she said
But as she tore off her dress
Lord I must confess
I got the devil's daughter
I got the devil's daughter in my bed

Like a knife at my throat
I like the way that she gropes
Her curves make my blood swim my veins
Her pain comes in doses
Till you're one step closer
Then you're completely insane
Hung by a halo and stabbed by horns
Then she'll tell you they're both the same

I'm walkin' up the stairs
My heart's beating fast
Following her legs
To her thighs
To her yeah, yeah, yeah

I went to bed with an angel
At least that's what she said
But as she tore off her dress
Lord I must confess
I got the devil's daughter
I got the devil's daughter in my bed




S.F.C.

Why don't you just try to see it all my way?
'Cause I'm really not liking what you have to say
You think you know it all, you think that I won't change?
But I'm really not listening to you anyway!

It's all in your head, you're stuck in your head my friend
You're stuck in your head, you're stuck in your head my friend
They should lock you up in a padded room
You psycho shitzoid loon

You're so fuckin' crazy
I think you're out of your mind
You're so fuckin' crazy
Why ya wastin' all my precious time?

They'll give you medication until you need some more
When they tie you up tight you know you won't get bored
They'll try to feed you holy water, love and TV
You'll pay with your mind but the sedation is free

It's all in your head, you're stuck in your head my friend
You're stuck in your head, you're stuck in your head my friend
They should lock you up in a padded room
You psycho shitzoid loon

You're so fuckin' crazy
I think you're out of your mind
You're so fuckin' crazy
Why ya wastin' all my precious time?

The full moon's out tonight
The loon lurks in the night
The full moon's out tonight
The full moon's out tonight

It's all in your head, you're stuck in your head my friend
You're stuck in your head, you're stuck in your head my friend
They should lock you up in a padded room
You psycho shitzoid loon

You're so fuckin' crazy
I think you're out of your mind
You're so fuckin' crazy
Why ya wastin' all my precious time?

Wastin' all my precious time
Wastin' all my fuckin' time




California Rain

The nights are long
And the days roll into each other
In the City of Angels I can't get no sleep
I wish that I was sippin' coffee in your kitchen
Yeah I'm stormy from the mountains to the sea

Left her standing
At the gate
Couldn't talk I was running so late
Thought I heard her say goodbye?
Saw the sun fade in her eyes

I brought my rain to California
All the way from Philadelphia, PA
And on the way my tears fell for you
I brought my rain to California

Wandering down to Sunset Strip in the morning
6 a.m., is that a rainbow that I see?
I interrupt my own damn conversation
Yeah I'm talking to myself at the Whiskey

Left her standing
At the gate
Couldn't talk I was running so late
Thought I heard her say goodbye?
Saw the sun fade in her eyes

I brought my rain to California
All the way from Philadelphia, PA
And on the way my tears fell for you
I brought my rain to California

Inside this heart that smiles no more
Lies the ghost of a love so beautiful
And all the time
The rain inside my mind
Goes on and on and on and on and onÉ

Left her standing
At the gate
Couldn't talk I was running so late
Thought I heard her say goodbye?
Saw the sun fade in her eyes

I brought my rain to California
All the way from Philadelphia, PA
And on the way my tears fell for you
I brought my rain to California




Blue Jeans

She's the kind of girl you bring home to your mother
She looks good in blue jeans even better under covers
She's a devil in bed between the sheets
Ask her if she's a saint and she'll get down on her knees and pray
Yeah yeah yeah

I can't be hiding no more trying ta catch my soul in a stolen red Camaro flyin' so far
Drunk drivin' trees are swinging by
I can't decide why she's on my mind
I can't be trippin' while trying and I can't find the truth
While another man tries to understand you
But he can't be wrong 'cause he's always right
Raise your hands it's time to fight

She's the kind of girl you bring home to your mother
She looks good in blue jeans even better under covers
She's a devil in bed between the sheets
Ask her if she's a saint and she'll get down on her knees and pray
Yeah yeah yeah

Grab something and go 'cause I can't decide
While I'm planting the seeds growin' in your mind
I can't be picking up things from all the bad, two years running
I'm gunning for the future fast
Pick yourselves up, decide why we're carrying on with guns and knives
Can't you tell that everything's wrong
But she's coming out and she looks good tonight

She's the kind of girl you bring home to your mother
She looks good in blue jeans even better under covers
She's a devil in bed between the sheets
Ask her if she's a saint and she'll get down on her knees and pray
Yeah yeah yeah




Mary Jane

M.J. I'm gettin' so fed up with all the shit that everyone keeps handing me
M.J. whisper in my ears 'cause you're the one that truly understands me
M.J. you know you build me up and I just beg you girl to never leave me

I wanna hear ya scream my name, Mary Jayne
You get me fucked up, get me fucked up inside my brain
Scream my name, Mary Jayne
You get me so high, get me so high

Baby, baby won't you just sit back and help me feel the path out so much faster
A psychedelic little point of view that opened up my eyes
Mary Jane, don't let the peace run dry
So please spark me right now, right now

I wanna hear ya scream my name, Mary Jayne
You get me fucked up, get me fucked up inside my brain
Scream my name, Mary Jayne
You get me so high, get me so high

Mary Jayne, don't you know I like to change which way the river flows
She climbs down inside me softly
Claims my soul, never ever wants to leave
But I just wanna fly

I wanna hear ya scream my name, Mary Jayne
You get me fucked up, get me fucked up inside my brain
Scream my name, Mary Jayne
You get me so high, get me so high

Get fucked up




Heart Strong

I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, and slam down the telephone
You swear that you still care
But I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
(Yeah I'm heartstrong)

You said you've been trying to hold on
For oh so long I've been thinking that you might like to tag along
And you came off so smooth with all your character flaws
And I'm thinking about you and every night I call

(Back into no one's arms, how could you leave this way)

I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, and slam down the telephone
You swear that you still care
But I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
(Yeah I'm heartstrong)

And you've been trying to pick me up like a ghost from the past
But you found that it's hard with your blood stained hands
Yeah it's real hard to get a firm grip
And every single minute that you think that your heart's too broke
Then your mind kicks in and screams let 'em go 'cause I'm torn asunder with no hope
And every night I fall

(Back into no one's arms, how could you leave this way)

I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, and slam down the telephone
You swear that you still care
But I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
(Yeah I'm heartstrong)

I just can't stand to see you smile
From a picture frame
And all I wanna do is touch your face
And take you far away
I'll take you far away

I'm still standing here, awkward and unaware
As you scream the topic's closed, and slam down the telephone
You swear that you still care
But I'm still standing here confused and somewhat drawn
My head's lost but I'm heartstrong
(Yeah I'm heartstrong)

But I'm still standing here
Tell me why, and I'm still standing here
All this time I'm living a lie
And I'm still standing here
Tell me why
And I'm still standing here
And I'm heartstrong
Bye bye bye




To See Where I Hide

The face of doubt
Stuck in a drought
Thirty miles shy of the pouring rain
I got the peddle stuck to the floor
Constant right turns driving me insane

I'm running in circles, with hopes held up so high
My skeleton's got faster legs than me
So he always looks behind
To see where I hide
Can you see where I hide?

The rain keeps on pouring but it never likes to hit my face
I'm all alone and I'm fading
My mind is trying so heard to relocate

I'm running in circles, with hopes held up so high
My skeleton's got faster legs than me
So he always looks behind
To see where I hide
Can you see where I hide?

Don't stop, ever

I can't keep up with my habits
I can't keep up with my time
I can't keep up with my reasons
I need more rain to help me clear my mind

I'm running in circles, with hopes held up so high
My skeleton's got faster legs than me
So he always looks behind
To see where I hide
Can you see where I hide?




You Want It All

Standing there with that killer stare and a body that won't quit
She said I don't want a little piece of your love so give me all of it
And before I knew what I had to do she was holding on so tight
She said just relax babe kick on back and enjoy the ride

She wants more and more and more and more

You want it all, little girl, I hope you're ready
You want it all, well I get it, so babe come and get it
Come on, you want it all, up down all around straight down to the ground
You say you want it but your momma won't let it
You only live once so babe come and get it
Come on, babe, come and get it come on

Another night she's just arrived and she's knocking down my door
Wearin' nothing but a raincoat and she's begging me for more
Singing, I ain't seen a drop of rain in so long I just forget
And the minute that I'm close to you I'm soakin' wet

She wants more and more and more and more

You want it all, little girl, I hope you're ready
You want it all, well I get it, so babe come and get it
Come on, you want it all, up down all around straight down to the ground
You say you want it but your momma won't let it
You only live once so babe come and get it
Come on, babe, come and get it come on




Nothing Stays

Sitting in a dark, cramped basement
Watching the sun go down behind the shades
We all try to find a way out
Realizing there is much more to today

Would I make you confess?
Maybe then we'd slow down a bit
And relax this pace, relax this pace

When everything seems to go away
I can hear the silver call my name
Nothing happens when I pray, no
Nothing happens when I pray
No nothing gold ever stays

Folks finally seen the simple view
And I've seen a way out
Through all the bars then all I seen was you
I've got an answer for these simple questions

When everything seems to go away
I can hear the silver call my name
Nothing happens when I pray, no
Nothing happens when I pray
No nothing gold ever stays

And as the shadows seem to rise behind me
I found a way to govern my ears
Everyone tends to bind up
Because they don't know
They don't realize their own fears
I just don't get it there is ßor Òis thereÓ? much more missing?
Is there something to grasp?

When everything seems to go away
I can hear the silver call my name
Nothing happens when I pray, no
Nothing happens when I pray
No nothing gold ever stays

No I can't, no I can't
I can't even take a breath
No I can't, no I can't
I can't ever take a breath

When everything seems to go away
Nothing happens when I pray
No nothing gold ever stays

No nothing gold ever stays
